Anthocyanins are used for food since historical times, due to their water soluble strong colors, which restricts the use, and are pH dependent. Many antocyanins are red at acidic conditions and turn blue at less acid conditions. The color extracted from several berries have been used to color many pastries, drinks and other food.

What are the pigments that plants use?
Plants primarily use chlorophyll, carotenoids, and anthocyanins as pigments for photosynthesis and protection. Chlorophyll absorbs light energy for photosynthesis, carotenoids help in capturing light energy and protecting against damage, while anthocyanins provide protection against UV radiation and attract pollinators.

No - they contain betalins.
If you add ammonia to red cabbage juice what color will it turn?
Red cabbage juice contains a class of chemical compounds known as anthocyanins. The color of anthocyanin molecules in solution depends on how acidic or basic the solution is. In a strongly acid solution, anthocyanins will appear red. In a neutral solution, anthocyanins appear purple. In weakly basic solutions anthocyanins appear blue, while in strongly basic solutions they will appear green. In extremely basic solutions, the anthocyanins will appear yellow. Because ammonia is a base, spraying ammonia into a glass containing cabbage juice (which contains anthocyanins) will most likely turn green.
